Can an infected nipple piercing cause pain in the muscle behind the breast without any signs of infection,or *


Question:
Have had a nipple piercing for 5 months and I have been expercincing pain for the past 3 weeks.

Answers:
It might. Is the area red and do you feel any swelling or heat at all? If you squeeze the nipple is there any drainage? Seems something triggered this, don't know what you might have done three weeks ago but perhaps some activity instigated this problem. When you say you are experiencing pain, is it constant or just when you move a certain way? The reason for my questions is because most likely a doctor will ask the same things, so you may need to visit a doctor and be prepared to give good details. Good Luck.

Other Answers:
yes it can
You should go see a doctor. Infections can spread.
not a goos sign go to the doctor
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUCH!
What a stupid thing to do. See a Dr. You could have a serious problem.
normal people don't do that anyway. deal with the pain.
The infection could be spreading or something could just be swollen. You should see a doctor.
Then why you going to have this?
by the time you find out that you have an infection .you are going to feel what is like to have real pain..you could have an infections an no symptoms but when you start feeling it then youare going to find something trreally nasty.
i'd say definately. Take it out see a doctor, you may need antibiotic if the pain is that deep.
As a Doctor I strongly go against piercing of any genital area because of possibility of injury, infection and abnormalities in the future. Tattoos also cause problems if the artist doesn't sterilize the equipment used in the process.
I cannot give a medical opinion since I'm not being paid and I cannot tell what the problem looks like physically. But as a person I suggest you consult your physician.
Maybe. I know your nipple will always be hard though, ugh. See a doctor. Or call the place that pierced you.
